Okay, I get where they're coming from with the "I would have transitioned if I had grown up in this environment" thing. Like, you're an insecure teenage girl and you don't seem to fit in with the other girls at all, you like women and not men, you don't like any of the "girly" stuff people may expect you to like/do, you don't feel feminine, you don't WANT to feel feminine, you hate your body anyway (because you're a teenager, so obviously you do), you might crave being part of the Guys because that seems to suit you more, but they don't want you as part of their group and so you're sad and alone. I get it. I was all of that. I'm even on the autism spectrum, which is something they also love to claim makes young women confused about their gender. BUT, I didn't transition. Never even considered it. And i did grow up in this environment. The most accepting family and friends imaginable. Watching trans content creators online all the time. Getting proper education on trans issues (partially from researching myself). We even had a trans girl in the year above me in high school and everybody accepted her, it was great. And all of that didn't lead me to mistakenly transition. And I think that, for the vast majority of the people saying that, it wouldn't have either. Because there's a difference between being a socially awkward lesbian and, you know, *being a guy*.
Yeah! Wanting to be one of the guys is one thing, wanting to actually have your body masculinise is a completely different thing. Also as a lesbian myself, who's gone through male puberty, if you actually are a lesbian - 0/10 would not recommend (obviously this doesn't apply to trans men but they're not lesbians). You don't want to IMAGINE how much Testosterone will ruin your ability to have lesbian sex. It's hell.
I as a lesbian like women. Transbians too. All of them. The pre OPs too. You are all beautyful. And to all the trans men who used to identify as lesbians: you are valid and don't let anyone be mad at you because of the way you are.
Saying there's an increase in trans people is like when anti-vaxers claim that there is a huge increase in autistic people. Actually there are just more people being diagnosed because the criteria have broadened, including people like myself who got diagnosed as adults.
Right! Just because we are recognizing a group more doesn’t mean they are coming out of nowhere in large numbers. They were always here but hidden/ignored

It gets me super mad when people try to ban puberty blockers for "making kids trans" when there are people who take puberty blockers for medical reasons. A cousin of mine began puberty around 8 years old, and took puberty blockers to slow the onset so she'd be mentally ready for it. She's now 13, honestly just living her best young teen life. It didn't make her trans. It made her feel far more comfortable in her body. Or is that not what the anti-trans people want?
@George Sommer that's got nothing to do with what I said, so... Wrong comment? My cousins' not trans, she was born a girl, and she's always been happy being a girl. She just developed super young, and delayed that development so she was more mentally ready for it. Which is literally your point.
God I'm getting flashbacks to "I'm not homophobic, *BUT* The Gays™ will cause humanity to go extinct because nobody's gonna have babies anymore." Also every time somebody equates "more people are coming out" to "there's more of them now" I think of that one tweet that went like "just because everest was 'discovered' in 1852 doesn't mean it wasn't there before"
Ya damn right! Not to mention the fact that claiming LGBT+ people will cause humanity to go extinct implies that bisexual people, pan people, polysex people, omnisexual people, etc don't exist and we in fact do.
Lesbian here. Apparently myself and all my lesbian friends are an endangered species now, who knew? Lol. Perhaps they think we're disappearing simply because we choose not to associate with transphobes? For the majority of us, transgender men and women will always be a welcome part of the LGBT community ❤
The most unfortunate thing about Jamie's videos is that they use logic and facts and are made for intelligent people, and sadly the vast majority of people who need to hear what he's saying are simply . . . not.
I saw so many people pushing this same idea when Elliot Page recently came out and it's just like, can we just leave him alone? Can we let him celebrate figuring something about himself without acting like this very personal development is some sweeping blow to the lesbian community? Bless all the lesbians showing solidarity with their trans siblings right now. 💖
The detransition suddenly from going through it in a short time thing annoys me because I've seen friends who struggled to get their stuff to help transition over years and it wasn't easy so the thought they think you can be "forced" through such a long process quickly annoys me.
I like that they say the number of trans people are “increasing” when the number of lesbians are “increasing” too. (I put increasing in quotations because there probably were always that many, just not open to/about it)
Since the amount of humans is increasing and an estimated 4-20% of the population is lgbtq+, the number of lgbtq+ people is increasing. I should probably quit smartassing around and grant that you were probably talking about the share of lgbtq+ people.
@@julzbehr6696 Honestly I'm pretty sure a majority of humanity is bi, but they just don't know it (except for those who already do) yet because of heteronormativity.
Jammie: It's common sense that as something becomes less discriminated against and more accepted that more people are going to be open about having that identity. My mum who won't let me transition cause of the "increase of ftm trans people": o:
As an older gay man, I’m very sorry this type of discrimination is coming from our community which should know better than most that this is unacceptable. I’m also embarrassed to admit that I myself took far too long in full Acceptance of the trans community. Social media creators such as yourself helped educate me and helped me to understand. Keep fighting the good fight and you will teach other people like myself to be better.
Well you've seen the light, so good for you. I wish my sister and her wife would wake up. They're transphobic and my firstborn is a trans enby. As long as we keep learning, there is hope. Have a lovely day. 💐

Ugh I hate that people like Arielle are being transphobic with all of this like come on we’re supposed to be helping one another not complaining that “lesbians are going extinct!” No, because if they’re trans and hetero then they weren’t lesbians to begin with ugh 🤦♀️ . It’s such a cis-het thing to do to be like “ugh! Everyone’s ____ now! No one is ever _____!” As a lesbian, I just want to say not all of us are like this. -Lovingly, your local liberal lesbian
For every trans man coming out who thought he was a lesbian, like 100 babies that will grow up to be lesbians are born. Lesbians are not going extinct in any way, and, as a lesbian, I am overjoyed to hear that more trans people are feeling safe and welcome enough to come out.

@@FearFreddyKrueger ok? but having a penis shouldn't be equated with being a man and liking penis shouldn't be equated with being a gay man if trans women can keep their penises
It's always sad but somehow fascinating how a group of people,who have been opressed themselves starts to become oppressors. They're just using the same shit that had been thrown at them. And learning more about transpeople and their experiences has actually made me thinking more about my own gender identity and what it means to identify as cis, for example. It helped me starting to think on this actively, so thank you Jamie and others who share their experiences, because all of us can learn from it (and of course find the proper representation they need ❤️).
"Not focusing on the T." My brain was like tea w/ milk and sugar, tea as in AAVE, and finally trans people. Especially emabarassing bc I am trans. I just really need a cup of tea right now.
Uhh, I stumbled across a forum of "lesbians" a few days ago where they were like "only afab people can be here, if you're not afab you can't be here" why, just why
I just came out as a lesbian (after 6 years of identifying as bi) so ughm NO WE AREN'T GOING EXTINCT?? It baffles me but it's not surprising that a minority group tries to push another one down to feel superior. I support my trans siblings with all my heart, and I'm glad more lesbians do too. That hate group doesn't speak for us!
The left-handed tidbit is a brilliant way to paint this picture. I'd never thought of that one, and I'm totally going to be using it every time I find myself talking about the rise in trans folk coming out. Which is constantly. I find myself here. Constantly. Lol, thanks!💜
I once told a guy who was being a transphobe that he can't have the lgbtq+ flag as his profile since the T stands as trans. He changed his profile Pic.
you know the like acc stonewall on twt, i’m pretty sure it’s an organization too, well some lady was like “i’m suing stonewall”. she has it in her bio i forgot what her account was but i found it when i was looking up the lgb alliance twt acc and found this awful acc called transgender trend to “sAvE LGB kIdS”

God I'm getting flashbacks to "I'm not homophobic, *BUT* The Gays™ will cause humanity to go extinct because nobody's gonna have babies anymore."
Also every time somebody equates "more people are coming out" to "there's more of them now" I think of that one tweet that went like "just because everest was 'discovered' in 1852 doesn't mean it wasn't there before"
There were people living near Everest before. It was discovered by Europe in 1852.
Ya damn right! Not to mention the fact that claiming LGBT+ people will cause humanity to go extinct implies that bisexual people, pan people, polysex people, omnisexual people, etc don't exist and we in fact do.
Lesbian here. Apparently myself and all my lesbian friends are an endangered species now, who knew? Lol. Perhaps they think we're disappearing simply because we choose not to associate with transphobes? For the majority of us, transgender men and women will always be a welcome part of the LGBT community ❤
Thank you, random lesbian!
✌ exactly! Plus people transitioning to align with who they really actually spawns new lesbians!

“Lesbians are going extinct!”
Me, a lesbian: Well, Guess I’m dead now
The most unfortunate thing about Jamie's videos is that they use logic and facts and are made for intelligent people, and sadly the vast majority of people who need to hear what he's saying are simply . . . not.
I don’t think they are going extinct, probably just avoiding you at all costs.
Hahah good point
*ZOTZ!*
Exactly
Arielle/ other transphobic lesbians : where are all the lesbians going.
Me :clearly away from you
Next they'll be trying to get the show- Avatar: The last lesbian on Tv.
I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS COMMENT
HSUSJSIAJSHSH
I mean, this sounds kind of excellent except for the transphobia part
@@beccaelise1453 we just cut out the transphobia and replace it with positive representation
I saw so many people pushing this same idea when Elliot Page recently came out and it's just like, can we just leave him alone? Can we let him celebrate figuring something about himself without acting like this very personal development is some sweeping blow to the lesbian community?
Bless all the lesbians showing solidarity with their trans siblings right now. 💖
The detransition suddenly from going through it in a short time thing annoys me because I've seen friends who struggled to get their stuff to help transition over years and it wasn't easy so the thought they think you can be "forced" through such a long process quickly annoys me.
My cousin: A lesbian.
Her: Why do I feel like I am dissolving?
Me: you are not.
Your cousin: adios
she don't feel so good
jamie is all cute and dandy until he whips out the data and calls out your bs with no second thought. love it. keep it up.
But even then, he's still somehow respectful doing it
I like that they say the number of trans people are “increasing” when the number of lesbians are “increasing” too. (I put increasing in quotations because there probably were always that many, just not open to/about it)
Since the amount of humans is increasing and an estimated 4-20% of the population is lgbtq+, the number of lgbtq+ people is increasing.
I should probably quit smartassing around and grant that you were probably talking about the share of lgbtq+ people.
yeah I liked men since I was 8 but I only knew that I was gay when my enby friend introduced me to the LGBT community
@@julzbehr6696 Honestly I'm pretty sure a majority of humanity is bi, but they just don't know it (except for those who already do) yet because of heteronormativity.
Nice PFP ;) *wink*
(I recognize that color scheme~)
Jammie: It's common sense that as something becomes less discriminated against and more accepted that more people are going to be open about having that identity.
My mum who won't let me transition cause of the "increase of ftm trans people": o:
I'm sorry. Hug?
Omg that petition!!!! I'm sharing everywhere. This is so important. TERFs are given a huge platform in the UK
As an older gay man, I’m very sorry this type of discrimination is coming from our community which should know better than most that this is unacceptable.
I’m also embarrassed to admit that I myself took far too long in full Acceptance of the trans community. Social media creators such as yourself helped educate me and helped me to understand. Keep fighting the good fight and you will teach other people like myself to be better.
Well you've seen the light, so good for you. I wish my sister and her wife would wake up. They're transphobic and my firstborn is a trans enby.
As long as we keep learning, there is hope. Have a lovely day. 💐
dude don’t even sweat it, i’m a trans woman and i can understand that something new to you like this can take time to accept especially with people all over the news and other platforms depicting trans people to be evil and scary, what matters now is that you support us and i’m very happy to have you as a supporter :)

Ugh I hate that people like Arielle are being transphobic with all of this like come on we’re supposed to be helping one another not complaining that “lesbians are going extinct!” No, because if they’re trans and hetero then they weren’t lesbians to begin with ugh 🤦♀️ . It’s such a cis-het thing to do to be like “ugh! Everyone’s ____ now! No one is ever _____!” As a lesbian, I just want to say not all of us are like this.
-Lovingly, your local liberal lesbian
For every trans man coming out who thought he was a lesbian, like 100 babies that will grow up to be lesbians are born. Lesbians are not going extinct in any way, and, as a lesbian, I am overjoyed to hear that more trans people are feeling safe and welcome enough to come out.
Also, trans lesbians are magical and valid people, and DEFINITELY lesbians, and trans men are valid and magical men and in NO WAY are they lesbians.
Last time I was this early, I was just a very supportive ally
Same though xD
Same
my mums one of those terfs who's like "trans? nahhh- you're just a lesbian sweetie" even though im literally a trans, *gay* guy 💀💀 i honestly just find it funny at this point bc i really didn't think people can actually be that dumb 🕴️
I actually told a transphobe about gay transmen before and he deadass told me that gay transmen were lying about being attracted to men?? WHAT??
Gender: penis
sexuality: also penis
@@canonicallykayfabe uhh penis? trans men can have vaginas
@@kupotenshi some trans men hate being reminded of this. Lol
@@FearFreddyKrueger ok? but having a penis shouldn't be equated with being a man and liking penis shouldn't be equated with being a gay man if trans women can keep their penises
As a lesbian we aren’t going extinct.
It's always sad but somehow fascinating how a group of people,who have been opressed themselves starts to become oppressors. They're just using the same shit that had been thrown at them.
And learning more about transpeople and their experiences has actually made me thinking more about my own gender identity and what it means to identify as cis, for example. It helped me starting to think on this actively, so thank you Jamie and others who share their experiences, because all of us can learn from it (and of course find the proper representation they need ❤️).
Am I missing something? Should I, as a lesbian, be deeply concerned with keeping count on the lesbian population?
"Not focusing on the T." My brain was like tea w/ milk and sugar, tea as in AAVE, and finally trans people. Especially emabarassing bc I am trans. I just really need a cup of tea right now.
Me a lesbian: yas pose trans rights
The alliance: them poor lesbians going extinct
Me: but.... I’m here as a cis lesbian and supporting trans right
Anyone who thinks lesbians are going extinct clearly hasn't spent any time at all on tiktok!

Uhh, I stumbled across a forum of "lesbians" a few days ago where they were like "only afab people can be here, if you're not afab you can't be here"
why, just why
I’m 14 and a lesbian, and I can confirm that we are very much still here
I just came out as a lesbian (after 6 years of identifying as bi) so ughm NO WE AREN'T GOING EXTINCT??
It baffles me but it's not surprising that a minority group tries to push another one down to feel superior. I support my trans siblings with all my heart, and I'm glad more lesbians do too. That hate group doesn't speak for us!
AYOOO WELCOME!
The left-handed tidbit is a brilliant way to paint this picture. I'd never thought of that one, and I'm totally going to be using it every time I find myself talking about the rise in trans folk coming out. Which is constantly. I find myself here. Constantly. Lol, thanks!💜

I once told a guy who was being a transphobe that he can't have the lgbtq+ flag as his profile since the T stands as trans. He changed his profile Pic.
Those TRANSPHOBIC lesbians forgot about stonewall riots I guess 🤦🏾♀️
you know the like acc stonewall on twt, i’m pretty sure it’s an organization too, well some lady was like “i’m suing stonewall”. she has it in her bio i forgot what her account was but i found it when i was looking up the lgb alliance twt acc and found this awful acc called transgender trend to “sAvE LGB kIdS”

I would wear the hell out of a shirt or hoodie that says "Transphobia is just recycled homophobia"
This article has the same energy as "the frogs are turning gay because of chemicals"
Also, trans lesbians are also coming out at a higher rate, so there's an "increase" as well so...
Noooooooooooooooo..... I’m already ugly, shy, can’t get a girlfriend, there rarely are lesbians who even notice that I am one of them... AND NOW THERE GOING EXTINCT
Shi- nooooooo what about the fictional lesbians in stories and animated tv shows/movies!
The transphobes claiming lesbians are going extinct are using the same "argument" as Straight People™ who say gay people will drive humanity to extinction.
I love hearing the PASSION with which you speak about these topics, Jaime!! Thank you for tackling these issues that crop up with REASON and REFERENCES. I can't tell you how it fills my heart to see your footnotes referencing specific articles and documentation.
Always love these more serious analysis videos. Thank you. 💖
Thank you for making a video about this!! So many people have asked me if I’m transitioning because I don’t want to be a lesbian 🤨 people really don’t understand how it works!

It makes me laugh how they think that all trans men are ‘confused lesbians’. I was never a lesbian before I came out as trans so jokes on them really lol

"We aren't transphobic!" they say as they leave out the T in LGBT....

I always love your commentary, Jamie. You're so good at making the shitty ridiculous things some people spout into something entertaining and educational.
And as a gay trans man who never identified as a lesbian, and who has an openly lesbian sister, this is especially funny to me.
The Lesbian Coalition disputes this claim about extinction and also thinks trans lesbians are cool
